This antenna is designed to be mounted on a base, installed on an extension or flush
mounted.
Choose a location for the antenna that has a clear view of the sky and is not located within
3ft of a Radar or other transmitting antennas. Ensure there are no major obstructions or
fixturesintheimmediateproximitytotheantenna.Theantennareliesondirect“lineofsight”
satellitereception. Ifyouare unsureofthe chosenlocation, temporarilymountthe antenna
in the desired location to verify correct operation. If mounted close to Radar, after the GPS
ChartPlotterhasafix,turnonthe Radar to ensure the GPS Chart Plotter holds the fix (use
the GPS Status page, see Par. 12.5 “GPS Status page”). The thread used on the antenna
is an industry standard (1inch 14TPI) used on a wide range of mounting brackets.
NOTE
The antenna cable can be cut and spliced to ease installation. Care must be taken when
reconnecting the antenna cable to protect from water and corrosion.
2.3.0 Flush Mounting the Antenna
NOTE
Beforedrilling holes,itisrecommendedtheantennabe positionedwhere thelocation isplanned,
cable connected to the GPS Chart Plotter and power turned on to ensure a GPS Fix is received.
1. Remove the threaded base from the antenna dome.

CP190i Page 17
2. To ease installation a flush mounting template for the antenna has been included.
3. Apply the mounting template sticker to the area that was verified for GPS reception.
4. Then, drill out the 0.78” (20mm) and 0.13” (3.2mm) holes, and remove the template.
5. Insert the cable into the 0.78” (20mm) hole and route to the GPS Chart Plotter.
6. Apply a small amount or RTV to the underside of the antenna.
7. Place the antenna and then screw it into place using the screws.
NOTE
In some cases the screw may not be long enough. If this happens simply apply more RTV to the
underside of the antenna to glue it into place.

2.7 GPS POSITION ON A VHF RADIO
STANDARD HORIZON has pioneered Digital Selective Calling (DSC) on VHF radios.
Advancements in DSC have made it possible to show the coordinates of a vessel that has
transmittedaDSCDistressCallorevenPolled thelocationofanothervesselandshowthe
position of that vessel on the display of STANDARD HORIZON VHFs.
STANDARDHORIZONhas takenthisfeature one step further.Ifa CP190i isconnectedto
a DSC capable VHF, the vessel in Distress or the polled position of the vessel is shown on
thedisplayoftheGPSChartPlotter,makingiteasytonavigatetothelocationofthevessel.
This is a great feature that could save someone’s life or for anyone wanting to know the
position of another vessel.
